Royal Challengers Bengaluru's qualification scenario if rain plays spoilsport
RCB would be praying to the weather gods that rain doesn't spoil the party for them as this is the only opportunity they have to secure the spot in the top four. They need to beat CSK by 18 runs or chase their target in 18.1 overs if they score 200 runs.
However, if the match gets washed out both teams will have to share a point and that will eliminate RCB from playoff race. However, this will affect CSK as well as they will end up with 15 points and this will make them vulnerable to potential elimination.
